Chisholm is charged with capital murder after investigators and witnesses claim he followed his “on-again, off-again” girlfriend Dr. Shauna Witt into the Walmart Supercenter on Highway 12, where he shot her twice.

Shortly after the shooting, Witt died from her wounds at OCH Regional Medical Center in Starkville.

Witt was currently working at her optometry practice located in the front of the store at the time of the shooting.

Officers on Saturday responded to a call of shots fired at the Walmart and when they arrived around 9:30 a.m., they encountered Chisholm, who was armed with a handgun.

After a brief struggle, SPD officers detained Chisholm and took him into custody.

Before being arrested for murder, Chisholm was out on a $5,000 bond for felony malicious mischief stemming from an incident involving Witt in Kosciusko.
